Product Description
A gripping account full of colour and humour of Dicken's experiences in ItalyA great addition to Alma Charles Dickens CollectionContains notes and extra materialA literary phenomenon in his lifetime and renowned as much for his journalism and public speaking as for his novels, Charles Dickens (1812-70) now ranks as the most important Victorian writer and one of the most influential and popular authors in the English language. His memorable and vividly rendered characters and his combination of humour, trenchant satire and compassion have left an indelible mark on our collective imagination.In the summer of 1844, taking a break from novel-writing, the thirty-two-year-old Charles Dickens embarked on a journey to Italy with his wife, his five children and his young sister-in-law. Struck by the scenery and the rapid diorama of monuments and novelties around him, the celebrated author of Oliver Twist and A Christmas Carol captured his experiences and impressions in vivid detail. The result is a travelogue like no other, written by one of the finest writers of all time.Abounding in colour and humour, and interspersed with unforgettable set pieces, Pictures from Italy is yet another proof of Charles Dickens's genius and versatility. A great addition to Alma Charles Dickens collection of popular novels.
